Dental Implants
Dental implants replace missing tooth roots, preventing jawbone deterioration. We use Nobel Biocare implants for stability, paired with crowns, bridges, or dentures. This solution restores function and aesthetics, offering a permanent alternative to traditional prosthetics.
All-on-4 Implants
All-on-4 implants support a full denture on four strategically placed implants. This method avoids bone grafting, even for patients with low jawbone density. It provides immediate stability and a natural-looking smile with minimal recovery time.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers mask dental imperfections like chips, stains, or gaps. These thin shells bond to teeth for a durable, stain-resistant smile. Our veneers mimic natural tooth enamel, offering a seamless, long-lasting cosmetic enhancement.
Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry addresses damaged or missing teeth through crowns, bridges, and dentures. We use high-quality materials for durability and aesthetics. Treatments restore function, comfort, and confidence, tailored to each patients oral health needs.
Smile Makeover
A smile makeover combines treatments like veneers, implants, and whitening to enhance appearance. We design personalized plans to address discoloration, misalignment, or missing teeth, achieving balanced, natural results that improve self-esteem.

I came to 38th street dental after another dentist told me I had 3 cavities and needed fillings and I wanted a second opinion. 10+ years later I have no cavities or tooth problems. It’s a reminder that good dentists are worth it!

Went to this dentist to try them out for a first time visit. They chose to do only x-rays and asked for me to make time for another appointment to clean. I could never get an appointment for cleaning even though after I called a second time and they promise to call me back when an appointment would open up. Never happened. Not exactly friendly and strange that I could never get much communication in order to get an appointment. I have never been to a dentist with this type of system. I guess it was inconvenient for their business to have both x-rays and a cleaning in one appointment which

Dr Meek makes you feel right at home. He is very knowledgeable and is sort of a great teacher about all the things you need to know concerning your teeth. His staff are some of the friendliest people Ive encountered in a Doctors office.

I have been a patient of Dr. Meeks for almost/right at twenty years. However, I received an email from his office stating that they are now charging $24 per patient for PPE gear for every appointment. When I questioned the offices practices. And stated that I would finish out my two appointments and find another dentist. I was basically told that I can go to a new dentist now.Which was rude. It wasn't about the $24. It is about principal. I'm fortunate to not have to worry about money. Apparently the practice didn't take into consideration that people are going through hardships

I have been using Dr. Tasch since 1991. He has done crowns and replaced my night guard, more than once. I would love to continue to go there but they no longer take my dental insurance. I have also moved to Pflugerville so will be getting someone closer to my new residence. I have only had good experiences here and would recommend him to anyone that needs a regular dentist. Just check if your dental Insurance is one they accept.
